Would jvo modem work on froyo2.2?

Hi I have stock rom of froyo 2.2 (this one on the link)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...&highlight=kc1
i really dont like the kc1 modem i was wondering if JVO modem would work.
It said its for CWM3
but can that be just flashed using odin ??
or do i have to have Clockwork mod 3?? how do i install this?? I checked my recovery (stock recovery) and it seems like the stock recovery is 3e version.. :S
how do i install cwm3 if i have 3e version..
I upgraded to GB using this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...1#post13566808
and upgraded to JVO modem using recovery update thingy
modem was great (GPS locks fast etcs) but it was too unstable (i prob did something wrong while installing it? i dono ) :and it kept shutting off the phone
so i installed the stock 2.2 froyo ugkc1
please help me
thanks

In my experience modems are pretty interchangable. I like the KC1 modem myself for Bell it seems to work the best. Maybe it depends on your area.
Follow this thread to flash modem for CWM any version.

If you are running Froyo then you will want to stick with CWM2 I think. Speedmod is an easy way to get this. If you want to use a modem file that is not listed on that link you can download any CWM2 zip file and open it and insert your modem.bin into it. Then flash that using CWM.

Hi thank you for your reply.
I dono where to downlaod the JVO modem with CWM2 version
also if i use speedmod will I get CWM2? even tho i have stock e3 recovery installed??/

Yes, speedmod will give you CWM2. Just download speedmod for ODIN and flash it as PDA. It will work on all froyo builds.

To get the modem file just extract the modem.bin out of the CWM3 zip file you have. Then download any CWM2 modem zip file and put that modem.bin into it. The only difference between those files are the modem.bin inside them.

I wish I knew a way to flash just the modem.bin with ODIN. There may be a way, but I have not found it yet. CWM is the only documented way that I have found unless the ROM comes in 3 parts. Then you can just flash the PHONE portion with Odin.
One other trick I did was I flashed with a ROM that included the modem that I wanted, then used Odin to upgrade to JVH but didn't flash the Phone portion, just the PDA and CSC. This worked good and didn't require CWM or rooting at all. Now I have a 2.3.3 stock ROM with a custom Modem without any hacks.

-start Odin.
-Select "phone" and fetch the modem.bin file.
-Only thing checked should be "Auto Reboot"
-Put phone in download mode
-Plug in USB
-hit Start

Awesome, Thanks Pr3torian. I have thought about doing that a few times but wasn't sure it would work. I always figured it was that easy but could not find any documentation to support it. All the Phone downloads are always md5 or zip format so didn't want to brick my phone.

[Q] Can i Combine '(FROYO)' with a '(Gingerbread)' ? (Xchange PDA)

I have a rom that is just 1 file:
FROYO:
NEE.tar (PDA)
and another rom is 4 files:
Gingerbread:
CSC-XXJV1.tar
PDA-XWJVB.tar
PHONE-XXJVK.tar
pit512.pit
I want to mix this 2 ROM and the result is something like this:
CSC-XXJV1.tar
NEE.tar <-- It's from FROYO
PHONE-XXJVK.tar
pit512.pit
IS THAT WORK ?!

I risked and try that.
result => It's worked HoHaa

It worked because CSC files, Modems (Phone) and .pit settings are totally firmware agnostic. All three work with both Froyo and Gingerbread interchangeably.
The pit file simply tells Odin how to set up the partitions. The CSC is the localization info and the Modem is the radio. Both the CSC and the Modem can be flashed via Recovery after install, so there was no real need to flash them at the same time, but it didn't appear to hurt. Likely what happened is they just flashed over the modem and CSC installed by the PDA file.
However, you may want to check in About to confirm the JVK modem is what you ended up with.

Thanks for info @rschenck
I went to downgrade boot loader to FroYo (from Gingerbread). and after that I understood that boot.bin and slb.bin is in PDA file.
I have this files:
boot.bin, slb.bin from JPU ROM
PDA_XWJS8_NEE
CSC_EZbase-XXJV1
PHONE_EZbase-XXJVK
I flashed by ODIN 1.7 and heimdall but it's failed (softbreak)
after that i backed to XWJS8 and i couldn't downgrade boot loader
What's wrong here ?! Do boot.bin and sld.bin is different in different ROMS ? what i need to repartition?
I'm confused sorry

You are over complicating your life to an amazing degree...if all you need are the froyo bootloaders there are much easier ways.
Just search in Google for ezbase and android soul...on that website are excellent instructions for flashing ezbase via odin. From there you can flash anything you want.
Don't try to invent the wheel messing with bin files.

2.for repartition What's need in put in ODIN ? (just pda, or pda,csc,phone) ?

Thanks again for respond.

[Q] How to Create a zImage tar?

I am running a 2.3.3 branded rom from my provider on a GT-I9000 device (based on JHJV9).
Using odin I flashed speedmod k15-t24 kernel to get root permissions.
I am done with all the backups and I no longer need root, so i want to flash back the original kernel of this rom. I have the original zImage file of this kernel, and I tried to flash it back using SGS kernel flasher, but the procedure fails.
I want to try flashing it back using odin, but the zImage file is not packed in tar.
My question is -
Using winrar, can I remove the zImage file from the speedmod tar, and then paste the original rom zImage file instead? Will I be able to flash it using odin then?
If the answer is no, how do I create a proper tar file for odin with the desired zImage file?

You just need to tar the zimage - you can name it anything- see Fugu mod root thread. The tar creation seems very sensitive. I tried 7zip and peazip and both did not work. The last one suggested in fugu mod did. The other programs created tars that all looked ok as files but would not flash in odin. No status bar on the phone and progress stopped on odin. The good news is that you aren't bricked if you pull the battery and start again.
You can also use fugu mod root and then keep your stock kernel.

another Alternative is to use Heimdall to flash yr prefer modem or kernel...
a little bit difficult to understand heimdall use, but not difficult to use. Only catch that u need to watch out is yr need to be in the same directory of the file that u want to flash..
u can know more about heimdall by search thru Google.. for heimdall for galaxy s. hope this help

Thanks for the answers,
Perhaps the Heimdall method will be easier. I'll start doing my homework on this platform.

hello,
use cygwin + cygwin packages.
Works great for me for releasing my own custom rom with odin.
i tried 7-zip but did not work.
good luck.

To make your .tar, try Izarc.
Working for me.

need help with original kernel file...
hey dangol, i have JHJV9 too, (JHJVB after kies update) and i was trying to root my phone but last time i did i messed up the signal strength, internet, etc. and had to take it back to orange. so this time im taking a backup of everything including the original kernel, which i cant do because you need root access to backup a kernel which entitles flashing a different kernel anyway, so i looked on the internet for an original; samfirmware.com and israeli forums and know one has it, so i was wondering if you could send me the original kernel in a file i could use with odin, and the CSC files if you have it. I'd really appreciate any help you give, iv'e been stuck for weeks.

[Q] Flash RevolutionRom on SGS I9000

Hi guys,
I'm really interested in flashing Revolution Rom to my SGS1. It currently has CyanogenMod7 on it.
I've looked at the instructions here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1236432
but can't figure out if I'm meant to just flash the rom or if I somehow need to flash a stock Gingerbread first before then flashing the REvolutionROM.
Can anyone assist?
Apologies if this question's already been asked, I did a thorough search but couldn't find anything. Happy if you just point me to another thread if it's already answered.
thanks
Aaron

To revert from CM7 to any other samsung rom you need to first flash a full PDA stock rom with odin. with repartition. and 512 pit.
then you can change to what ever rom you want.

Hi Bork84, thanks for the reply. Where do I get the stock GB rom that will allow me to then flash RevolutionROM?
Am I able to just flash nandroid backup that I took before I flashed CM7? It's stock Froyo with Voodoo LF (rooted)
thanks

[Q] Need some help BSOD/bootloop guys

Hi guys,
I am flashing my gf's phone and tried to root the phone first. Flashed a 'PDA' file in ODIN as the guide said.
Now my Galaxy S has the BSOD (Black Screen Of Death) logo. I can still go into the Download-mode, so i guess there is no need for panic.
I read a lot of guide's and faq's here at XDA, and I think I am supposed to flash new firmware via ODIN (with a PIT, PDA, PHONE and CSC file).
My problem is that all the links to this firmware are down or dead, Argh!
Can you provide me a working link with the right and some advice?
BTW, I flashed my HD2, and HTC Sensation many times before, but I am new to flashing Samsungs.

When you flashed the PIT file I assume that you selected repartition?
The PIT file contains the "Drive" layout when you select repartition it will completely wipe the phone as you have found out.
If the phone is able to boot into download mode you will be able to flash another ROM.
I would suggest Darky's 10.2 as this is a odin flashable ROM and it is based on the Samsung stock ROM's.
If you use Darky's you do not have to root the phone before flashing as Darky's complete ROM includes root standard.
Most of the new custom ROM's do not require root before hand as root is included unless the thread states other wise
